Question - Is there any way to have pettank agro all mobs coming into camp?

[GeorgiaGeorgiz]

I use kiss11 (for EQ) and it works great most of the time. I have a mage pet as pettank. Mage pet has best raid focus for the expansion on the tlp server. My group is 70 mage, 70 cleric, 70 druid, 60 warrior, 60 ranger and 60 chanter. The 60 chars were recently pled to give me a full group. the Tlp server has low population so groups are almost impossible to get.

The warrior is puller due to being able to take hits better while running back to camp. Chanter can't mez the mobs we fight in the instanced zone. Mobs are 66 and named 68. Chanter can only mez to 62.

When the puller gets 2 or more mobs or a roamer comes into camp, the extra mobs will attack the healers. Sometimes, the mobs will kill both healers before the first mob dies and everything switches to the next mob. With 3 mobs in camp, the first two have to die before the pet pulls mob off healers, if the healers are still alive. The healers usually live, unless lom when the fight starts.

It would be nice, if the pettank would agro all mobs and keep the mobs hitting on the pet. Or maybe we could designate a melee char to keep agro off healers and chanter? Or maybe someone knows a better way.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Not currently a feature in KA, you'll need to level he chanter more or manually pull singles / play the mage for the time being.

Thank you. My plan is to level the lower lv toons but it is slow as I am doing all AA as I level them. AA xp is much faster that way.

I usually break camp manually and then turn the warrior/puller loose using KA. This works almost all the time, but sometimes after a few hours the spawns tend to cluster and I have to rebreak camp.

I was hoping to have an easier way.

Thanks to all the programmers for their great work. I love using KA. the very vanilla was great but the Kiss11 is even better.

I know it's generally better to AA along the way, but if you're dependent on a spell for CC like mez, I'd just level up until you had what you need and then AA. It doesn't make much sense to me to struggle with a problem you could fix in a day or so of exp'ing.

Just my cheap 2 cents

Well I leveled my enchanter up to lv 70. He can mez the 66 lv mobs. However, the pettank will not agro the mob after mez breaks. The other chars are assist on pettank so they won't attack unless the pettank attacks.

The other chars just stand around and die, unless the mob hits the mage the and pet attacks. The chanter usually dies first followed by the healers. Without healers, the rest of the group dies.

I tried to get the mage to do a nuke to break mez so mob would attack the mage. However, I can't get the mage to cast a dd to break mez.

For now, I am not using enchanter for mezing. The group survives much better with healers keeping everyone alive until mobs die.

So I am trying to equip the warrior so he can tank and hopefully do aoe taunt.

look at the settings i thought there was a break mezz setting

This part of the Pet ini isn't casting on mezzed mobs?
